Clarification of MARU lube and the silicone that beats all exsisting silicone.

[Edward]

Not all rubiks brand is bad but their 2x2 4x4 and 5x5 sucks their DIY lock up even more than storebought

Plastic discoloration may appear if oversprayed in cube (penray)

I'm too used to heavy cubes

2x2: Pestvic liked his.
4x4: No. It was Thrwast's main speedcube for a while.
5x5: It was my main speedcube until I got a V cube. It was better than an ES.

>Pestvic liked his
And iirc, he only liked it because he loosened the screws, and lubed (and his ES was still better)

>No. It was Thrwast's main speedcube for a while.
That doesn't negate the general opinion that Rubik's 4x4's pretty much suck.

>It was my main speedcube until I got a V cube. It was better than an ES.
That is your particular 5x5. Just like the point above.

Saying something is good just because a well-known YouTuber likes it is just ridiculous.

 

[blah]

6x6x6 is fun.

the GuHong overshoots too much if use MARU lube. also, change GuHong core with non-spherical Alpha core

No it doesn't.
And why?

The light, overshooty nature of a maru lubed gu hong might be nice for some people, and bad for others.

The original core in the gu hong sucks. Put a different core in it. Alpha 1, Type C, C4Y cores are all fine candidates.

if they moved on their own, they would solve themselves. there would be no speedcubers

Clearly
Now that we've established that cubes DON'T move on their own...
How, exactly, is it that the cube overshoots? It seems like you're blaming the cube for your failure to turn accurately.

 

[TK 421]

well, my hands is too used to edison, storebought and very tight cubes, so that would be my mistake

 

[Crosshash]

Umm the maru lube works great on everything wtf

On topic: Maru lube works fine in any cube. It only lasts for a few solves anyway, so if you overlube, it will be fine in the end.

Thanks for that. Lol I am NOT getting it if it runs out that quickly.

Why isn't it reccomended to the GuHong? It works nice on the GuHong.
Different lubes respond differently to different cubes. There is no Best Lube out there.

I've used MAru Lube for my Guhong. As you said it works really nice with it. And So i agree

it does not. It's just that it drys after a few solves and isn't as slippery as before. It's normal, because it's supposed to be dry.

Maru lube is amazing on the Guhong you just have to get used to being a little more light fingered

Soooo... you don't need to lube it after every 12 solves?

The best silicone ive ever used is KEL pure silicone. no work-in time required, and it makes cubes FLY. I might even bring my can of it to the Virginia open, just so you can see it in person.

The Maru lube doesn't randomly think "Ok, I'm gonna make the cuber relube with me evry 12 solves"

For me the Maru Lube is Great it makes the cube become fast it a short period of time. CRC takes like 10 minutes to break in. Though it depends whether you prefer tighter or looser cubes
